Figs or Prunes?

Question

I love Figs and Prunes health wise which is better 4 u

Answer 1

Both are good and have different advantages and disadvantages though I am no expert. It is always a good idea to vary your diet (swith back and forth). I grew up pcking prunes and just love them, in N CA. til the grapes overran the prunes. Figs are very nutgritious and the dried figs are irrestible .

For me Prunes is better. But I like Figs that you get not in a bag but just seperately at the store.
